The Another Badass

Chapter 2

;

Me: I don't like being in the house alrdy

Heather: but it's huge right?

Me: it's darn huge.

Olivia: Ash is very hot you know, you're lucky

Noah: why are you there anyway?

Me: because my house have termites.

Peter: Ash is not hot. Stop talking about him.

Heather: AW YOU ARE TALKING TO OLIVIA

Heather: ARE YOU JEALOUS??

Olivia left the group.

Heather: that escalated quickly.

;

My eyes shot right open. This doesn't look like 5.30am in the morning.

I slowly look towards the clock, 8am.

We're fucked.

I run out of the guest room and run into Peter's room, "wake up, you fool!"

;

I walk slowly into the History class, "Ms Evans! Why am I not surprised?"

"Nice outfit." Heather mutters, I look down at my black hoodie and black jeans.

"Screw you." I say it to her, almost too loud that the history teacher heard me.

"Ohh... Someone is going to the detention room." Owen sings.

"Shut up asshole." I snap at him.

;

I step into the detention room, all eyes on me. The only pair I saw were Ash Parker's.

"What's your name?" I look at the teacher who sits behind the table.

"Drew Evans." I say in a low tone and walk over to my seat.

"Who is he?" i ask a random person who sits a few feet away from me.

"New disciplinary teacher, the school is gonna get stricter on late-coming and truancy." He replies, whispering because we are not allowed to talk.

"That's just bullshit." I frown at what he said.

"Well, it's the truth."

"Lucky we're seniors now." I stated. "My name is Matt Allen, I am in the basketball team." He smiles.

"Just call me Evans." I simply shrug.

"Yeah we all know who you are. Fawn and that freaky girl is back, what are you gonna do?" A guy sitting behind Matt joined in our conversation.

"I don't know... I really don't care." I let out a nervous chuckle.

"You know Cross Country is coming up again this year." Matt says, changing the topic.

We all let out a groan, "we are all going to die in the run." Peter says, walking into the detention room.

He let out a sigh and sit behind me.

"Oh hey Ash, why are you in here?" Peter ask.

I turn to look at Ash, "I was late." He replies.

"Good morning boys and girls. Welcome to a new year! We have made a few adjustments to our school rules. First rule, no multiple piercings is allowed, only one standard piercing."

My eyes widen at what Ms Seinfeld just said over the PA system.

"This is bullshit." I whispered. "Second new rule, if we found people skipping classes, you will be severely punished. And people who comes late more than 6 times need to write an article issued by our new disciplinary teacher, Mr Edwards."

"Next rule is for the girls, skirts are still allowed but they must not be just below your butt that's too short. And that's it for today, more announcements will be made. Have a nice day."

;

"Hey Evans! I need to talk to you!" I turned around and noticed Owen running towards me.

"What do you want, Collin?" I look at him.

"We have a basketball match today and I need you to fill in." Owen says quickly and took a deep breath in.

I let out a laugh, "I lack of basketball skills, I can't do it."

"I know you can do it, Drew. You just need a lot of people around you and you will dominate." He tells me.

I furrowed my eyebrows at him with confusion, "what?"

"I will get you from class at 12 babe."

;

At exactly 12, Owen stood outside my English class. "Good morning Teach, I am here to get Drew Evans for a school basketball match."

"You joined the basketball team?" Peter whisper, "no." I replied quickly.

"Come on, Drewwy."

"AWW!" The girls cooed.

"Oh shut up!" I snap at all of them, "idiots." I muttered under my breath.

;

"Owen, I can't do this. You're a fucking idiot and I hate you."

"That's good! Transfer all that anger into the game, you will do fine." He assured me.

"I am gonna drag the school team down." I muttered.

"That's not good." He says it in the same tone as me.

"Drew, we played basketball all the time. Take a deep breath, relax, and pass it to me or go for the hoop."

;

"Owen, I can't do this. I can't do the three pointer shot, I am going to die." I mumbled as I walk to the three pointer line.

"You're doing great, Drew. Don't worry about it." Edwin says and I look at the hoop.

I let out a breath and shoot it in the hoop.

;

"You see, you lead 9 points straight for us! You are amazing!" Noah hugs me.

"Drew Evans. You're a miracle player!" Zach says.

"Oh thanks!" I smiled widely, "aw, are you blushing?" Owen whispers in my ear as we walk out of the school compound.

"Nope. I am not in love with you anymore,"

"So you're still in love with Nate." He stated.

"Nope."

"What happened to you guys anyway?" He raises his eyebrows curiously.

"Nothing."

"You're such a liar."

;

"Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me -"

"You're so annoying." I roll my eyes at him. "You're lucky I am not pinching your cheeks anymore." He smiles slightly.

"Okay. Nathan just lost feelings for me." I simply say and sit on the basketball court side as he does a layout.

"Are you sure you're not the one that lost the feelings?" He sits down opposite of me.

"Nathan was with a girl, she moved here 3 months ago and yeah... It turns out that she is very pretty and she's not like me, a tomboy. She wears makeup, dresses and skirts... And I don't. And I just found them kissing each other and I don't know..." I let out a sigh and then smiled.

"When was your heartbreak?"

"Some stupid years ago when I was like 14, got this stupid crush on this stupid guy for like a year." I groan, "he didn't liked me back and I was sad about it."

"It was stupid."

"Yeah, I can tell." Owen nods slightly.

Then we stayed silent for a while till he broke the silence, "I am so sorry for everything I did to you."
